The Cannes Film Festival just became a lot more personal for one Hollywood couple. Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin used back-to-back red carpet moments to celebrate their biggest news yet: they’re expecting their first child together.

The 33-year-old actor and his 32-year-old supermodel wife made their pregnancy announcement at the Histoires Parallèles premiere on Thursday, May 14, with Palvin glowing in a flowing blue Miu Miu gown with feather trim that beautifully showcased her growing baby bump. The very next night, they doubled down on the magic, stepping out at Friday’s May 15 screening of Karma in coordinated black-and-white elegance—Sprouse in a crisp tuxedo with a delicate diamond brooch, Palvin in a white button-down and black maxi skirt with a dramatic train. Talk about making a statement.

What’s particularly sweet about this moment is how seamlessly it fits into their love story. The couple has been together since 2018, married since 2023 after tying the knot in an intimate ceremony in Palvin’s native Hungary. Sprouse opened up to Us Weekly in August 2025 about how marriage had reshaped his worldview, describing the shift from“survival mode”independence to thinking as a team:“I’m fighting for two people. And everything I think of now is what we do together.”That’s the kind of foundation that makes news like this feel not just exciting, but earned.

Their connection extends beyond the red carpet too. Sprouse has been vocal about being Palvin’s biggest cheerleader, whether she’s working the runway or dancing—he even joked to Us in February 2025 that she’s“offensively good”at dancing, which makes dancing with her surprisingly challenging. And he revealed something that many couples spend years figuring out: he always knew he’d marry her after they met. No second-guessing, no gradual realization. Just certainty.

Now, with their first baby on the way, the former Disney Channel star and the international model are heading into the next chapter of a relationship that’s proven surprisingly grounded for two people living very public lives. They’ve managed to build something real, something that doesn’t need the circus of constant red carpets to feel solid. Though clearly, when they do show up, they’re not shy about celebrating the milestones that matter.
